HARRISBURG, PA.
Thursday Afternoon, March 1, IS6I
The New Cabinet.
The new Cabinet, appointed by Presi
dent Lincoln and confirmed by the Sen
ate, seems to give general satisfaction.—
The gentlemen composing it are all men
of distinguished ability, undoubted patri
otism, sterling integrity, and well fitted
for the respective positions to which they
have' been called. We subjoin brief
sketches of the lives and public services
of the President's assistants in the admin
istration of public affairs, which will be
read with more then ordinary interest at
this time
WM. H. SEWARD, AIEOBBTABY OP 13T.A.TE
Mr. Seward was born in Orange county, in the
State of New York, on the 16th of May, 1801.
Hewes educated at Union College, in that State,
and took the degree of Bachelor of Arts in 1820,
and of Master of Arts in 1824. At the age of
twenty-one he established himself at Auburn in
the profession of the law, and soon acquired a
lucrative and extending practice. Early . in his
public and professional life he traveled m the
Southern slave States, and is supposed to have
formed at that time he opinions and princi
ples hostile to slavery to which he has since
given expression. To a greater degree than is
known of any other American statesman—Mr.
Sumner, perhaps, excepted , —the object of his
life seems to have been to counteract the exten
sion of slaiery. Upon other questions Mr.
Seward's policy may be described as humanita
rian. He is in favor of the .education of the
people, of the amelioration of the laws and of
the development of the material resources of
the United States. In these respects he has
ever, been among the foremost of American
statesmen, and may justly claim the praise be.;
stowed upon him by his friends, and scarcely
denied by his opponents, of being "the best
and clearest head in America." In 1830 he
bad acquired such influence and character that
he was elected a member of the Senate of the
State of New York, then the highest judicial
tribunal of the State, as well as a legislative
body. In 1834, a t the close of his term of four
Sears, he was nominated a candidate for the
Governorship of the State of New York, in op
position to Mr. Willliam L. Marcy, the then
Governor and, later, the distinguished Secreta
ry of State of the United States. On this oc
casion Mr. Seward was defeated by a majority
of 10,000. In 1839, his party becoming bold
er and stronger, he was triumphantly elected,
in opposition to Mr.' Marcy, the majority being
greater than his previous minority. Without
having passed through the lower stratum of the
House of Representatives, he was in 1849 elect
ed to the Senate of the United States for six
years. He gave so much satiefaction that he
was re-elected.
S. P. ORABB,'ISEORETARY OP TREASURY
Salmon Portland Chase was born at Cornish,
N. H., on the opposite bank of the Connecticut
river from Windsor, Vt., in the year 1808.
When nine years of age his father died, and
three years after this bereavement, in 1820,
young Chase was found at the seminary in
Worthington, Ohio, then conducted by the
venerable Bishop Philander Chase, his uncle.
Here he remained until Bishop Chase accepted
the presidency of Cincinnati College, entering
which, our student soon became a chief among
his peers. After a year's residence at Cincin
nati, be returned to his maternal home in New
Hampshire, and shortly after resumed his stu
dies in Dartmouth College, Hanover, where he
graduated in 182 G. He shortly after commenc
ed the study of law in the city of Washington,
under the guidance of the celebrated William
Wirt, then Attorney General of the 'United
States. He sustained himself during the years
of his professional studies by imparting instruc
tion to a select school for boys, composed in
part of the sons of the most distinguished men
of the nation. He was admitted to the bar at
Washingten in 1829, and entered upon the
practice of his profession, in which he soon rose
to eminence, and in which he was distinguish
ed for industry and patient investigation. He
was subsequently elected a. member of the
United States Senate, and upon the expiration
of his Senatorial term,
he was put in nomina
tion for Governor of Ohio, and elected. He
was again put in nomination for Governor, and
was again elected to that position.
13L11011 OARBRON, SIORETARY CIE WAR
Gen. Simon Cameron was born. in Lancaster
county,. Pennsylvania. Reverses and misfor
twits in his father's' family cast him very early
in life on the world to shape and carve out his
own fortune. After having removed to Sun
bury, in Northumberland county, his father
died, while Simon was yet a boy. In 1817 he
came to Harrisburg and bound himself as an
apprentice to the printing business to James
Peacock,'who is still a resident of Harrisburg,
and one of its most worthy and respected dti
zens. During this time he won the regard and
esteem of Mr. Peacock and all his fellow work
men by his correct deportment, his industry,
• intelligence, and faithfulness. His days were
devoted to labor and his nights to study.--
Hauing completed his apprenticeship, he went
to Washington city, and was employed as a
journeyman printer. In 1824, though scarcely
of competent age, he bad attained such a
position and influence that his party—
then in the ascendancy in the Congres
sional district—proposed to nominate him
for Congress, an honor which he promptly de
clined, as interfering with the enterprise in
which he was then engaged. He was appointed
Adjutant General of the State in 1828, an office
which be filled creditably and acceptably during
Gov. Shultz'a term : and in 1831, unsolicited,he
was appointed.by General Jackson as a visitor to
West Point, a compliment, atthat time tendered
only to the most prominent citizens. To no single
man within her borders is Pennsylvania more
indebted for her great systems of public improve
ment and public instruction:Nor did he hesitate
to invest his own means,when prosperity and for
tune dawned upon him, in enterprises of great
public importance. In 1834 he originated and
carried to successful completion the Harrisburg,
Mount Joy and Lancaster Railroad, surmount
ing difficulties and prejudices which would
have appalled and paralyzed a man of ordi
nary energy and determination. .In 1838 he
was nominated for Congress, but declined.
He was engaged in public enterprises froth
which be would not permit himself , to be
drawn aside by any consideration .of office or
personal elevation. In 1851, he was mainly in
stramental in the formation of the Susquehan
na Railroad Company,- now consolidated with
the Northern Central Railway, by which the
upper valleys of the Susquehanna are connect
ed with the capital of the State. There wail
still another link wanting to form a direct an&
continuous railroad to New York city, the
great commercial metropolis of the Union_
General Cameron's practical mind soon sug
gested the mede and manner of supplying this
want; and the Lebanon Valley Railroad Com
pany was organized, and that road built, and
now consolidated with the Philadelphia and
Reading Railrbad. In 1832 General Cameron
was elected cashier of the Middletown Bailk—a
padtion which he held for twenty-won co
secutive years. So that about the year 1854,
he was at the same time president ; of the Len
anon Valley Railroad Company, -president of
the Commonwealth Insurance Company, and
cashier of the Middletown Bank, .besides being
direotor and manager in several other institu
tions, and having a large private business of
his.own to manage and superintend. Yet, not
withstanding the vast labor and responsibility
of these positions, he performed the duties of
them all satisfactorily and successfully.
MONTGOMERY BLAIR, POSIMASTBR 'ORNERAL
The State of Maryland will be represented in
the Lincoln Cabinet by Judge Montgomery
Blair, who resides at Montgomery Castle, near
Silver Spring, Montgomery county, Md. Judge
Blair is the son of Francis P. Blair, well known
in General Jackson's time. He graduated at
West Point, went to the State of Missouri,
practised law in St. Louis, was-made Judge,
and was appointed by President Pierce one of
the Judges of the Court, of Claims, from which
place he *as removed by President Buchanan.
Judge Blair is now in Gip prime of life and
mental vigor, and there is no man south of
Pennsylvania who is more devoted to Republi
canism, or who is more popular among the rad
ical Republicans all over
_the" North and West.
He is son-in-law of the late Hon. Levi Wood
bury, of New Hampshire, and brother of Frank
P. Blair, Jr., Congressman elect from the St.
Lcinis district.
' 0. B. SMITH, SECRETARY Or THE INTERIOR.
Kr.,Smith is well knownin Indiana, wad is
reputed to.be.pOssessed , of a vigorous intellect,
and considerable administrative tact and abil
ity. He has been in Congress, and was Com
missioner on Mexican claims. In regard to his
political faith, it is , not certain that he has
made any decisive declaration, but it is very
generally presumed that he is a moderate Re
publican.
OIDEON WELLS, SIONWARY OF THE NAVY
Mr. Gideon Wells, of Connecticut, is the
Northern Postmaster-General. Mr. Wells has
been for upwards sf thirty yearn a leading pol
itician in Connecticut, and for much of that
time has been connected, directly and indirect
ly, with the public press, wielding a partizan
.pen, and always exhibiting evidences of un
questionable hostility to his opponents, in the
advocacy of his opinions, ixilitical or otherwise
He for some time held the office of postmaster
of HartfOrd, under Mr. Van Buren's adminis
tration, and left the office soon after the elect
tion of Mr. Harrison, in -1840. During a part
of Ilix.-Polk's administration he occupied an
important position in the Navy Department.— , .
Like many other prominent Northern Demo
crats, Mr. Wells disagreed with his party on
the subject of the repeal of the Missouri
Compromise, which breach was still further in
creased by the Kansas policy of the Pierce
and Buchanan Administrations. The Territo-'
rial question being the chief one at issue, he
Cbecame identified with the Republican party
soon after its organization, and has since been
one of its leaders, taking a prominent part in
lits Conventions, State and National. Ho' was
la delegate from the State at .large-.to the Chi
cago Convention, and constituted one of the
committee to Springfield with the official notice
of Mr. Lincoln's nomination. He was also one
of the Presidential eleators, Nor was his visit
to Springfield the first time he tad met that
illatinguished gentleman. While in Hartford,
a year or more since, they formed a somewhat
intimate acquaintance, which resulted in the
warmest mutual friendship and confidence ; so
that Mr.' Lincoln has, in the selection, no doubt
acted as much upon his peinonal knowledge
and estimation•of the man as upon any solici
tation of New Ragland Republi
cans.
EDWARD BATES, ATTORNEY GENERAL
Edward Bates was born on the 4th of Sep
tember, 1793, on the banks of the James river,
in the county of Goochland, Virginia, about
thirty miles above Richmond. He was the
seventh son and youngest child of a family of
twelve children, all of whom lived to a mature
age, of Thomas Bates and Caroline M. Wood
son. Both of . his parents were descendants of
the plain old Quaker families which had lived
for some generations in the lower counties of
the peninsula between James and York rivers.
They were married in the Quaker meeting, ac.
cording to the forms of that simple and virtu
ous people, in the year 1771; but in 1781 the
father 'lost his membership in the Society of
Friends by bearing arms at the siege Of York-.
town—a volunteer private soldier under Gen
eral Lafayette. In 1805, Thomas F., the
father, died, leaving a very small estate and a
large family. Left at an early age an or
phan, and poor, the son was fortunate in
what was better than a patrimony, .a heart
and a will to labor diligently' for promotion..
Besides, several of his brothers were industrious
and prosperous men, and treated the helpleas"
with generous affection. One of them, Flem
ing Bates, of Northumberland, Virginia, took
him into his family as a son, and did a father's
part to him. He had not the benefit of a col
legiate education, being prevented by an acci
dent—the breaking of a leg—which stopped
him in the middle:of his course of study, and
confined him ,at home for nearly two years.
In childhood he was taught by the father, and
afterwards had the benefit of two years' in
structions of his kinsman, Benjamin Bates, of
Hanover, Virginia,
a most excellent man, who,
dying, left behind him none more virtuous and
few more intelligent. In 1812, having renounc
ed service in the navy, and with no plan of life
settled, his brother Frederick (who was Secre
tary of the Territory of Missouri from 1807 to
1820, when the State was formed, by successive
appointments under Jefferson, Madison and
Monroe, and was second Governor of the State,
invited him,to come out to St. Louis, and fol..
low the law, offering to see him safely through
his course : of study: He accepted the invita
tion and was to have started in the Spring of
1813, but an unlooked for event detained him
for a year. Being in his native 'county of
Goochland, a sudden call was made for volun
teers to march for Norfolk, to repel an appre
hended attack by the British fleet, and he joined
a company in February, marched to Norfolk,
and served till October of that year, 811 private,
corporal and sergeant successively. The next
spring he'set out for St. Louis, and crossed the
Mississippi for the first time on the 29th of April,
1814. Here he studied very diligently in the office
of Rufus Easton, a Connecticut man, a good law
yer, regularly educated at Litchfield, and once
a delegate in Congress from Missouri Territory.
He came to the bar in the winter of 1816-17,
and practiced with fair success as a beginner.
In 1863 he was elected judge of the Land Court
of St. Lords county, and after serving in,the
office about three yearshe resigned, and reurn
ed again to the practice of the law. He acted
as President of the River and Harbor Improve
ment Convention which sat at Chicago, and in
1852 acted- as President of the Whig National
Convention which met at Baltimo.e. In 1850
he was appointed by President Fillmore, and
confirmed by the Senate Secretary of War, but
declined the appointment for personal and do
mestic reasons. Mr. Bates was complimented
with the honorary degree of LL D, in 1858, by
Harvard College. Some years before'he had
been honored with the same degree by Shurt
leff College, Illinois.
WILL THE POPE REMOVE THE PAPAL
SEAT TO JERUSALEM 7-A correspondent
of the Liverpool .Mercury, writing from
Rome, states that French officers have lat
terly been very busy in obtaining inform.
ation respecting Jerusalem, and the state
of things in that quarter He adds that
they had been taking measurements in
iteVend localities , partioularlithe ground
Pcnnoulvaitia 111414 Zelegrapti, Qt4uretrav 'Afternoon, lillarrb 7, 1861.
that lies about the Mosque of Omar on
Mount Moriah. From Jerusalem they
had gone on to Hebron, Gaza and other
points, for the like purpose. It was also
currently reported that a body of French
troops was shortly to come to Jerusalem,
while another would be stationed at Jaffa,
and a third on Mount Carmel. At Bey
rout, he says, the French officers openly
affirmed that their government had no in
tention of withdrawing the force sent out,
but were about to employ them shortly
on a new and very different errand to that
for which they ostensibly came. The
French were also actively employed in
making a road from the Holy City to Da
mascus, along othich they were erecting
houses at certain intervals. It is said,that
such a scheme as this intelligence shows
to be in course of development, points to
the realizing of Pio Nono's favorite plark
of removing the seat, of the Papacy to Je
rusalem.
SCOTT AND Twtoos.—The treachery
of Brig.. General David B. - Twiggs and
his surrender of the public property in
Texas into the hands of the secessionists,
reminds us again of the debt which the
country owes to the royalty and firmness
of Gen. Scott. Gen. Twiggs, after Scott
and Wool, is the highest officer in the
American Army. But a few years, his
life being spared, would have clasped be
fore, by the observation of law of-seniori
ty, he would have stepped into the Lieu
tenant General's Owe. Time begins to
press heavily upon Gen. Scott's head, and
in the natural course of events hardly a
decade can go by before he will ,take his
place in history as one of the benefactors.
of his race. Gen. Wool is considerably
the senior of Twiggs and in all human
probability would have made way, by
death, for his promotion. But two lives;
and those of feeble tenure, between the
traitor and the command he covets.. It
is fortunate that he showed his tree colors
and marched off before he had the pOwer
to debauch the army under his orders.—
It is doubly fortunate that he was not at
this time in the plaoe of the old Roman
who has saved the Republic.
A LETTER FROM LIEUT. SLEMMER, in
command of Fort Pickens, says' that, the
State troops, near him, Die disgusted with
playing soldier—that only about three
'hundred remain—that they are much
afraid the fort will attack them—and that
he could do so and retake the navy yard,
foris, ana all the Government property in
an hour, had he permission. He says
farther, that he has mounted nearly all
the guns—that • they have worked like
horses, and that with his small force they
have done more work than his opponents
could do with their two> thousand men.—
Five hundred men, he guys, could defend
the•fort against any attack. _lie adds,
very modestly, and only bra've men speak
so : "It quite surprises me to see my name
figuring so extensively , in the newspapers.
I have simply done my duty; but I sup-
pose the doing it, Under inch a pressure
of opposition, - makei it appear credita
ble."
THE NEW SENATE.—The new Senate
stands 28 Republicans, against 22 Oppo
sition; with 18 vacancies, 14 of the vacan
cies being in the seceding States. The,
other four vacancies are one in Missouri,
one in California and two in Kansas. If
both California and Missouri elect Oppo
sition Senators, those in Kansas will pro
bably be Republican, making the status,
30 to 24. So that so long as the seces
sionists keep out the Republicans have a
working majority. The new members are
Messrs. Clark, N. H.; Harris, N. Y.;
Clingman, N. C. ; Chase, Ohio ; Harlan,
Iowa; Howe, Wis.; Breekinridge, Ky.;
Lane, Ind. • Nesmith Oregon; Mitchell,
Ark.; Cowan, Pa., who hold over until
1867.
Jorm Mrroszi, Writes to the Charles
ton ;Mercury, from Paris, that the .Span
iards begin to take alarm from their fears
of the designs of the Southern Confedera
cy. The Epoca, a Madrid paper, calls for
additional reinforcempts of Spanish troops
to be sent to Cuba, and "earnestly warns
its government that the danger—whieh
was remote, contingent and visionary
while two separate nations and two in-_
compatible systems of society were, neu
tralizing one another in: the American
Union—becomes imminent, now that each
is shaking itself loose of the other, and
preparing to go its own way."
THE TARIFF ON IRON.—Most certain
ly the neui‘ tariff on iron is favorable to
Pennsylvania. The iworease on Welsh or
English bars will in future be $l5 per ton,
instead . of $9 12, the present duty; one
watch spring, sleigh,und horse . shoe steel,
the advanced rate will be $25 per ton, and
on the finest grldes of oast .-steel, the in!:
crease is $25 per ton It is thought tlut
the English iron masters will submit to a
reduction of at least .21. per ton in the
price, with a view of meeting, as far as
possible, the restrictive 'duties of the
United States.
